Does your child love playing games? How about making their own? With this class they can transform their love of games into a start down the valuable path of learning to code! We teach students how to make their own versions of popular games, showing them how to take an idea and turn it into reality. This introductory game coding course uses Scratch, a coding tool developed by M.I.T. for elementary students. Using Scratch’s powerful visual coding interface students will be able to create scripts that can control art assets they create with only minimal typing. A perfect starting point for learning coding, logic, and game design skills.

Games students make in this activity set:

Pong

Flappy Bird

Falling Object Catcher

Students can take our Scratch courses in any order, each class is standalone with no prerequisites. Difficulty levels are set by student age rather than prior knowledge.
